Ella Wheeler Wilcox Quote

To sin by silence when we should protest,
Makes cowards of men. The human race
Has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised
Against injustice, ignorance, and lust,
The inquisition yet would serve the law,
And guillotines decide our least dispute.


Poems of Problems (1914)
